Your presentation exposes the most hidden secrets and information that congregations must not be exposed to, bcs it can open their eyes and release them from the church bondage. Thank you Dr for the truth spoken.
Your presentation is quite interesting. Frankly I'm surprised to hear an African preacher speak about religion this way. Impressive. I am a Black American Agnostic amd don't fully agree with your religiosity, but can appreciate this particular perspective of yours.
Dr Charles Apoki once preached the Sunday sermon in my Church in Port Harcourt. I liked his directness then as I do now. Thank you for being reasonable and honest, and also for speaking.
God gave us our brains to think. Some want to escape to heaven as if God did not create the world. The mandate to rule and have dominion over the earth is clear; we should follow that. Religion is waiting and calling on God to come and do what he has equipped and already ordered us to do.
Dr Apoki, There was a period were i was unemployed for 18months. I did Esther fast too many times until i could nt do it any more. I suffer from ulcers today😢
I love this guy!!!!!!!!! 😄 In a world where we as humans are quick to judge each other from face value, I certainly would have missed a lot of the gems he shares if I had allowed myself to default to the "Judgment Setting". We are conditioned to accept content from people who look, talk, sound and dress in a certain way........What a shame. I value anything AUTHENTIC and Dr Charles is exactly that for me 😎😎.
Dr Apoki, i have watched about four of your videos and i must say we have similar mindset and think alike. When I question some religious doctrines or practices people see me as being too critical, so most times i just keep quite and walk away.. Thank God I have found this channel. More of such truths sir. From Port Harcourt.
"Dr. Apoki’s words should be true enlightenment for all. Embrace the unvarnished truth and allow it to resonate in your hearts. By doing so, you will liberate yourself from the constraints of religion and the shackles of deception, paving the way for true freedom and enlightenment.
I always say that there is a big difference between religion and spiritually What the world offers is religion but a deep connection with the Almighty God is spiritual The time has come that they that worship the Father will worship in spirit and truth
THANK YOU FOR PREACHING WHAT GOD REVEALED TO ME LAST YEAR. I got kicked out of the last church I will ever step foot in ever again, for asking ''too many questions'' they called me a rebel because of this. I am still hurt by this, but I have found God for myself and true freedom OUTSIDE of the church system
You can't quit church and say your in the right? Isn't church the body of christ? Do you know jesus himself wrote letter to the 7 churches , all this churches had blame, there is no perfect church.. by the way you think heaven is a place where you find God personally? Heaven is for the brethren, it's not a one man thing.. find a church that suits you. Don't quit church that's not biblically supported. You can ask God personnelly where you should belong... even God doesn't work alone.
@@chijiokedaniel3859 I no longer believe and identify with most things taught in church. My greatest regret is bring a victim of scriptures taken out of context and at the wrong time and applied to your life. Whilst God is telling you to fight, pastor is telling is you to relax because there is a verse in the bible that support it. Things like Christmas and Easter are all pagan. Some books have been taken out of the bible. Jesus is black and its annoying to most Christians. I ask God questions and I deserve answers. I am not worshipping God in a way influenced by Europeans and some blacks who find it abomination to ask God why. I'll look for God in my house.
@@chijiokedaniel3859 church is not a building or a physical house, a person can fellowship with brethrens by coming together and that makes that gathering a church, the Lord say when 2 or 3 are gathered in my name, I'll be there there among name, the gathering can be in a field, house etc etc.. Someone don't have to identify with any certain man made church building name to be called a Christian that goes to church. I remember my years in the University, I naturally develop a certain habit which was.. When I was walking towards a place, I'll come across other students worshipping, praying in the open and holding hands together, if I watch them carefully and see that they're genuinely calling on Jesus Christ name, I do join them to worship God, after the worship they will always want to invite me to their church building by giving me church programs flyers, but I'll tell them not to worry, that staying among them and worshipping along side them is all the Church I need. The letters that was written by Paul to the churches was written as addressing Christians in each country and not a certain physical house building like Roman Catholic Church, RCCG, MFM, Deeper Life church, Anglican etc etc.
Hello Dr Opoki, I appreciate your wisdom and description of "agents of underdevelopment", Wokeism in the west has largely replaced Abahamic religion, the bewitching effects have been upon families has been utterly devastating. The outcomes have led to the involution of innovation and stagnation of development driven by government ideologies, we are going backwards, Best wishes, KPP nz
The main issue is the African's proclivity to abandon everything to religion. We tend to misuse/underuse institutions handed over to us. The same way we have scientists that are not involved in any scientific innovation
The major reason many people are sold out to pastors and whatever they're saying is their mental state, very many people are depressed over 50% another 30% are suffering anxiety and other mental instability They are just hopeless
Thank you Dr Apoki for this insightful teachings. Many religious “leaders” are exploiting their followers due to poverty & ignorance. Many are actually worshiping their religious “leaders”. It’s up to the people to liberate themselves.
Well said and a word is enough for the wise. Useful that ought to be spent on creative thinking to solve our numerous problems are spent in religious activities. The same goes for the monies made in churches that ought to be invested in creating jobs that are spent on lavish lifestyles by these pastors. Why don't ask why these pastors rarely create jobs? The money spent in built auditoriums are like the parable of the sower that casted not his seed, but hid it and profiteth now from it. These auditoriums can not provide jobs that is sustainable. We need to spend time creating solutions to our poverty. God is not the one to do this.
I love all your massages sir you are teaching us the real truth thank you very much I have been following you on WhatsApp RUclips and face book God bless you more and more with wisdom and knowledge
Oh, Mark, you are not wrong at all! They are the most wicked people on the face of this earth! Even the pastors will advise your wife AGAINST you the husband to destroy your home! Just one example and true!!!
@@francineharris9473 You can not be self-righteous when you are under the control, and power of "Godliness" Their bible is supposed to have everything spelled out for them on morality, self-control, etc, abi? Me I don't know oooo, make someone tell me nau!
Over the years, after studying them, looking at how wicked they are that they do not follow what they preach, go to church on Sundays, and come home or outside in society very mean and wicked, I hate the church, I look at this Christian religion, one kind! LOL!!
Totally agree with you and I have always maintained that Fairh must be reasonable...it has reasons..and a blind Faith leads to destruction...as for fasting..."dont fast until your knees look like those of a came"l😂😂😂..Doc your humour is contagious
This is my first time of watching your videos. I must say that we share the same mindset. You have true wisdom. Pls, help educate our people on the need to preserve our languages, religion and culture. Colonization has robbed Africa a lot.
As we speak am watching a video of a pastor in Uganda caning his congregation of all ages in the name of blessings😢...blind Faith has completely robbed people of their dignity...no critical thinking whatsoever.
Dr.Charles Jesus said let us reason together but Christians do not reason with the pastors they feel it would be wrong to ask questions.Sometimes women would used the church to avoid their husbands thats why Christians are having so many divorces good topic.
There's a difference between faith (which is what Christ harped on) and religion (which is what many practice) Many will say to me Lord, Lord and I will say depart from me, I never knew you
If you follow what it says in the bible, you will prosper and will not see darkness upon your death. If you read the word of God and insist on taking gain for yourself twisting the words, you will have to pay. Men are weak and wicked not the word of God. Make sure you can tell the difference of God’s will and the will of men.
I am from India, I have met so many good Catholic Nigerians, I hope Nigeria s Catholic Church is strong 😢, Jesus warned us about false prophets, the Catholic Church in India, has created such awesome schools that they have been a pillar of the society, and these students then accept the faith without force,
it's crazy how many preachers bring the conversation to telling people to give money to their church (that's works)..God told us to put all the tithe into getting food for in our house then Jesus put away the laws that were against us
We should please clarify people what exactly religion is and what Christianity is; Let’s differentiate it for the babes to know which to follow. Secondly if we truly make people know the true meaning of Soul Salvation, Christians will begin to live a sufficient, creative and dominant life.
i had to rebuke a preacher mid sermon in the church.. then i left that church immediately.. he was saying for about ten minutes how we are not worthy of Gods love i said in front of the whole congregation that that is wrong of the preacher to preach that we are not worthy of Gods love.., i told him that we are saved by our faith and by Gods Grace and Gods love for us.. and that it was works he was preaching (not being good enough to be loved by God).. and i told him that the Bible tells us that we are made perfect through our faith so it is not right of him to be telling those with faith that we are not worthy of Gods love.. yes we don't always do what's right or best but God loves us, so we must be worthy of that love God loves us so much he gave his only son to save us.. so i can't let some guy tell me we are not worthy.. that's up to God to decide

The bitter truth that will surely make some business pastors hate you. Thanks immensely for always sharing Dr.
It’s so refreshing to see an older generation saying these things..,
Your presentation exposes the most hidden secrets and information that congregations must not be exposed to, bcs it can open their eyes and release them from the church bondage.
Thank you Dr for the truth spoken.
You are called to the nations. Not denominations. So powerful. Got to love this man's teachings.
Finally, someone gets me 🥺 I'm not against the Bible and God, I'm against Religion. Nothing kills your dream and ambition like religion🥺🥺
Thank you sir I totally agree with you many Christians worship their pastor especially from the penticostal churches.
Excellent delivery as usual thank for the mental emancipation.
Your presentation is quite interesting. Frankly I'm surprised to hear an African preacher speak about religion this way. Impressive. I am a Black American Agnostic amd don't fully agree with your religiosity, but can appreciate this particular perspective of yours.

Dr Apoki,
There was a period were i was unemployed for 18months. I did Esther fast too many times until i could nt do it any more. I suffer from ulcers today😢
😢😢😢I bet you anything your church never offered to pay your rent even for one month, right?
I love this guy!!!!!!!!! 😄

You have full sense Dr. I hate nonsense. I am watching from South Sudan.
I thank God I subscribed to your Channel! This tips is more than Millions. Thank You!
Wow thank you Sir. I love listening to your words, admonitions, advice. You fill up the space of my elderly father I lost at tender age. ❤❤❤❤

This is the naked truth.....in my country, there's a pastor who made his followers fast until they died....
I love your advice and teaching Sir. Greetings from the uk

Are you a Nigerian? And are you living in Nigeria?
I quit church like 8 years ago. I begun to develop a personal relationship with God

You remind me so much of my beloved late father. He would have loved you because you share the same principles.
True. There's mentorship in the lessons delivered. Keep it up
Such a feeling of freedom after this message. After all some of the things we've been thinking right, but made to think otherwise.
Thanks for sharing sir

Jesus paid it all, all to him I owe...
Powerful message from Dr Apoki. God bless you sir. Personally, I love you sir.
Thanks sir.
The major reason many people are sold out to pastors and whatever they're saying is their mental state, very many people are depressed over 50% another 30% are suffering anxiety and other mental instability
They are just hopeless
Hate him or love him daddy Apoki is a wise man 💯 another wise man in Nigeria is pastor olumide from Ogun state, these two are worth hearing .
Thanks so much Dr. Charles Apoki
2 Timothy 2:15
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
Thank you Dr Charles Apoki for bringing us down to reality!
Thank you Dr Apoki for this insightful teachings. Many religious “leaders” are exploiting their followers due to poverty & ignorance. Many are actually worshiping their religious “leaders”. It’s up to the people to liberate themselves.
They are so long gone there's no coming back
"You cannot eat your cake and eat my own" May the Lord open our eyes to know the right thing to do.
😂😂😂I had to laugh out loud

Great message. I am enjoying the wisdom from the good Dr.
8.43 I have found this to be my personal experience most people who think that they are very religious are very wicked
Oh, Mark, you are not wrong at all! They are the most wicked people on the face of this earth! Even the pastors will advise your wife AGAINST you the husband to destroy your home! Just one example and true!!!
You mean self righteous and having a form of Godliness but deny the power.

Thank you for this honest assessment. I hope Nigerian christians will open their eyes soon, by the grace of God🙏
Excellent advise.
I'm just loving this man teaching; just liking the way he is brainwashing me😂😂😂
Don't confuse brainwashing with enlightenment.. He's not preaching but educating us
It is well sir. Many things have happened and are still occurring
Your submissions are practical truth.
Totally agree with you and I have always maintained that Fairh must be reasonable...it has reasons..and a blind Faith leads to destruction...as for fasting..."dont fast until your knees look like those of a came"l😂😂😂..Doc your humour is contagious

Pls, help educate our people on the need to preserve our languages, religion and culture. Colonization has robbed Africa a lot.

Caning?😂😂😂
Thank you so much Sir
Most churches in third world countries are very much supported by former colonialists.
The person who share testimony in church, when you lose the job, the church won't allow you to share your experience with church.
Thank you sir,learning from this wise man.God bless you sir.
We are drunk on grace, look at what we have become...
Doctor God bless you for this deep insight am following you from Ghana
Dr.Charles Jesus said let us reason together but Christians do not reason with the pastors they feel it would be wrong to ask questions.Sometimes women would used the church to avoid their husbands thats why Christians are having so many divorces good topic.
That a lot of Nigerians are waking up?! Glory! We're in this together.l Sir. Thank you.
There's a difference between faith (which is what Christ harped on) and religion (which is what many practice)
Many will say to me Lord, Lord and I will say depart from me, I never knew you
What u are saying is true sir, This is what am telling people here sir, We need to use our sense. From Ile-Ife Osun State.
Yes sir.
If you follow what it says in the bible, you will prosper and will not see darkness upon your death. If you read the word of God and insist on taking gain for yourself twisting the words, you will have to pay. Men are weak and wicked not the word of God. Make sure you can tell the difference of God’s will and the will of men.
Was waiting for someone to talk about it. Dont know what theier Children and grandchildren think of that.🙆😮💨
Are educational qualifications determine the quality knowledge of man
I am from India, I have met so many good Catholic Nigerians, I hope Nigeria s Catholic Church is strong 😢, Jesus warned us about false prophets, the Catholic Church in India, has created such awesome schools that they have been a pillar of the society, and these students then accept the faith without force,

Thank you so much sir. You have said it all.
I am getting to know you, I feel the same about organised religion, I am in UK. I like the way you think. Thank you for your content. 😊
I do Agree with you
Religion and spirituality is two different thing God is a spirit and he that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth ❤
Good talk
True words
Effortless is key, otherwise works. It's finished, Jesus uttered.
Organized religion is the bane of Africa.
Thanks sir 🙏
They don't read the Bible they don't let the truth set them free
Thank you sir, God. Bless you
